Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM Youth Initiative Hectors Helpers Youth Combating Litter and Desert Dumping" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00222) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement focused on natural resource stewardship in Southern Nevada. It supports a coordinated public campaign designed to promote clean-up activities and reduce littering and illegal dumping on public lands. The effort centers on youth engagement, using the "Hectors Helpers" theme to motivate community involvement, raise awareness, and encourage long-term behavior change around responsible recreation and waste disposal.
This funding is offered as a cooperative agreement, which usually means the BLM expects to be actively involved in the project beyond simply providing funds. In this case, the announcement emphasizes an ongoing partnership between the BLM and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), carried out under the Great Basin Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit (GBCESU) master agreement FAA060058. The intent is to continue and strengthen an established working relationship and to keep messaging and on-the-ground activities coordinated across agencies and partners, rather than funding a one-off clean-up event.
The opportunity planned a single award, with total funding of $55,000. The award ceiling and floor were both set at $55,000, indicating a fixed award amount rather than a range of possible project budgets. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute additional non-federal funds to be eligible. The program is associated with CFDA 15.231, "Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management," reflecting its connection to broader conservation and land management goals, even though the direct activities are focused on litter prevention and illegal dumping deterrence.
Eligibility was listed as "unrestricted," meaning the competition was open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any further clarifications that may have appeared in the full announcement on Grants.gov. The notice was posted on July 22, 2010, with an original and final closing date of August 8, 2010, and it was archived on September 8, 2010. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Susan Kaller, Grants Management Officer at the BLM (775-861-6559, susankaller@blm.gov).
